The Pretty Reckless - My Medicine

Sultry is the best word to describe this song - as long as you temper it with the vein of rock running through it. My Medicine is dirty glamour at its finest, delving deep into the heart of you in the best way. From the click of a lighter at the very beginning to the last syllable this song is studied arrogance and anger, making use of heavy guitar and tempting vocals in order to create the effect. The lyrics are also part of the effect, with the gorgeous refrain Somebody mixed my medicine tying the whole song together. My Medicine is a song for dark rooms and darker intentions - take a walk on the wild side tonight.
